My Students

I have the honor of teaching 20 fun-loving, silly first graders. Many of my students come from low-income homes but come to school eager to learn. These sweet kids crave learning new things. I want to provide these students with the tools they need to learn and master the concepts of first grade.

I want my students to come into a warm, welcoming atmosphere where they have the ability to learn and grow.

Providing us with the supplies we need to make this a great year will help them become lifelong learners.

My Project

Every day in my classroom, students are given an afternoon snack after we come inside from recess. Studies show that hungry children do not focus and retain information. I provide snacks for the students who do not have snacks sent from home.

Many of my students receive free or reduced-price lunches and do not have snacks to bring from home.

Some of my students do not have food at home on the weekends and we send food with them. I always allow these students to take something from our snack cabinet with them. Kids have enough to worry about without having to worry about their food.
